Trashy 90's Makeover

Does anyone remember the 90's?  Tall bangs and permed hair were all the rage.  Being someone who has naturally crazy curls as well as a cow lick in the middle of my forehead, that was a great style for me!  I pretty much wake up like that!  Is there anything you miss about the 90's?

Tuesdays with a Twist #405 - Come party with us!

This was supposed to be for Mark 11:24 "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." However, I ended up using Mark 11:22 - 25 along with Mark 11:9.  The page was created with watercolors and markers.

I am so glad you are here to party today!  There is no limit on links as long as they are family friendly including giveaways, Etsy shops and other link parties.  Please remember to visit some fellow party animals and leave positive comments!

My second attempt with this particular YouTube drawing tutorial. Pencil, colored pencils, markers for the lettering. 

Backyard Flock in Winter

It's been quite some time since our backyard flock has been the topic for a post.  This shot was snapped last week, capturing five of our thirteen chickens.  The red rooster and three hens are bantams.  The round black rooster is cochin.

We love watching them forage around the back yard.

You're the Star | January | Week 3

I have another Bible journaling page for you.  The poppies were created using a watercolor lesson from a little book I purchased last year.  The lettering is Crayola markers.

Mark 9:23 Everything is possible for the one who believes.

So much Fabric, So little Time

Many of you know I enjoy participating in monthly challenges with bloggers who are much more talented.  I wasn't super committed to January's soiree because the theme was organization.  Heaven knows I need more that in my life, especially in the bedroom dedicated to crafts.  It is always a wreck.  All.  Ways.  A.  Wreck.

So, it was overwhelming to consider getting something completed on a specific deadline.

Tuesdays with a Twist #403

 Our news this week...  Here's another Bible Journaling page.  Can you tell I'm having lots of fun with these?

I guess this page is a two-for-one.  It began with Jesus' gift of peace. John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.  BUT, John 15:12 was also on this page. My command is this: Love one another as I have loved you.   

The water color spatter tree is a tutorial from blog, The Postman's Knock. 'Can't remember where the darling owl cut file is from right now, as I did not pin it. GAH! Hopefully, I'll remember and can let you know

 Our news this week...  Here's another Bible Journaling page.  

The verse is Romans 12:21 :: Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.  This one was created with watercolors, acrylic paint, markers, pencil and the polka dot car is a cut file. I thought about writing "evil" somewhere along the road, allowing the little automobile to squish it, but instead chose "overcome" for the sky.
